Answer:
PICC lines are appropriate for long-term therapy and can easily be used in the home environment.

Explanation:
The most appropriate type of IV access for Elaine is a PICC line because the practitioner recommended home IV therapy for two weeks. These lines are actually the most appropriate because they can be used in places such as home environment and for long-term therapy.
A PICC line is a long, thin, flexible tube called a catheter. It is used to give you chemotherapy and other medicines. A doctor or nurse puts it into a vein above the bend of your elbow. It can stay in place until your treatment is over. <span>

Only male carries XY chromosomes, meanwhile female carries XX chromosomes. "Heterozygous for the X and Y chromosomes" means that the person have both X and Y chromosomes in their cells, therefore only males fits the description.


This is also why the birth rate of girl or a boy is always 50%, it is because the sex of a person is only determined by the sperm from a male. Each sperm either carries a X or a Y chromosome, never the both. Therefore, the chances of a X or a Y sperm fertilising an X egg is always 50%, also explains why both female or male must have at least one X chromosome because an egg always carry an X.
